Weblogic 9.x admin console slowest and worst application ever

Does anyone else think the Weblogic 9.x admin console really sucks? Is there any place I can make improvement requests?
Things in Weblogic 8.x that took just a couple of minutes to accomplish routinely take a half-hour or more in the Weblogic 9.x console. I have recently discovered WLST and I have created a couple of scripts to script things I do quite often but quite honestly I don't have time to script everything I need to do in the console, especially since BEA should provide a usable admin console IMHO.
My specific complaints (not all inclusive as there is no way I could think of every annoyance I run into on a day to day basis):
1) It is crazy slow. We use the ssh node manager so every time it loads a page I guess it polls every managed instance via ssh and page loads take a couple of minutes. For example, getting the next page of Deployments takes around 3 minutes.
2) The deployment pagination is very annoying. Why is this limited to 10 deployments per page? This should just show me a list of all my deployments in alphabetical order. The pagination offers nothing. At the very least pagination length should be configurable. The pagination combined with problem 1 takes me many minutes to get to the app I need to do something with.
3) If BEA insists on pagination on the deployments list at least give me a link so I can immediately jump to a specific page! The link should have the letter range of the deployments on that page (like A-C, D-V, W-Z, or something like that).
4) After I stop an app it jumps back to page 1 instead of showing the page of deployments containing the app I just stopped. OMG!!! GRRR! Now I have to hit Next several times to get back to my app with 3 minutes between each page load. YOU HAVE GOT TO BE KIDDING ME!!!!
5) Why is there not a Redeploy button like there was in Weblogic 8.x? If I need to restart an application I have to go through the update procedure and not upload a new version. This is annoying, just give me a damn redeploy button.
6) After clicking the Lock button I have to wait 2-3 minutes for it to give me the Lock. Why does it take this long?
7) The whole locking mechanism is stupid. Why do I have to obtain a lock to make any changes? I never had a problem in Weblogic 8.x with walking on someone else. I can see how this could possibly be beneficial to some organizations (I suppose) so at the very least make obtaining the lock optional via configuration.
I am sure there are many more but I can't think of all of them now. I will start writing it down every time the console annoys the hell out of me. IMHO the Weblogic 9.x console broke the perfectly good Weblogic 8.x console.
It wouldn't be so annoying if it wasn't so MADDENINGLY SLOW.

We have upgraded our WebLogic from 8.1 to 9.2 along with our PeopleSoft 9.0 upgrade and boy-oh-boy, has the WebLogicAdmin console slowed down.
It used to open in about 10 seconds.
Now it opens in roughly 1 minute and 30 seconds.
The heap size settings are the same as they were in the WebLogic 8.1
Even restarting the WebLogicAdmin and associated PeopleSoft PIA's is the worst I have ever seen.

    Hi..
    You can use wlst or jmx to perform all security config etc.. same as if it were perfomred from the admin console..
    .e.g. wlst create user
    ..after connecting to admin server
    serverConfig()
    cd("/SecurityConfiguration/your_domain_name/Realms/myrealm/AuthenticationProviders/DefaultAuthenticator")
    cmo.createUser("userName","Password","UserDesc")
    ..for adding/configuring a role
    cd("/SecurityConfiguration/your_domain_name/Realms/myrealm/RoleMappers/XACMLRoleMapper")
    cmo.createRole('','roleName', 'userName')
    ...see the mbean docs for all the different attributes, operations etc..
    ..Mark.

  • Certficates on Weblogic 8.1 Admin Console

    Hi. I am involve in migrating from weblogic 5.1 to 8.1
    In my weblogic.properties file I have the following setting:
    weblogic.security.certificate.server=democert.pem
    weblogic.security.key.server=demokey.pem
    weblogic.security.certificate.authority=ca.pem
    weblogic.security.clientRootCA=SecureServerCA.pem
    But when migrating to 8.1, may I know where should I place the 4 pem files. Is it in the same folder as config.xml.
    I found from another forum that I could set it in config.xml via
    <Server Name=....
    <SSL ServerCertificateFileName=democert.pem
    ServerKeyFileName=demokey.pem
    ServerCertificateChainFileName=ca.pem
    TrustedCAFileName=SecureServerCA.pem
    ....>
    </Server>
    But can someone guide me thru steps on how do I configure the above in the weblogic console.
    Thanks :)

    Number; total number of segment “hits” since the server started.
    misses
    Number; total number of segment misses since the server started.
    And:
    "If requested data is contained in the cache (cache hit), this request can be served by simply reading the cache, which is comparatively faster. Otherwise (cache miss), the data has to be recomputed or fetched from its original storage location, which is comparatively slower. Hence, the greater the number of requests that can be served from the cache, the faster the overall system performance becomes." -- The all knowing Wikipedia

  • C6 - Best and worst phone ever?

    After years of N70 ME I finally decided to change my phone. It is THE c6. Big jump from "simple" N70 to "great" C6. This is the best phone I have ever had or seen.  I have it almost 3 months now and it is working perfectly.I installed garmin and several other useful applications, even dropped it few times (on the carpet) and it still works great.
    I NEVER heard so many complaints about one phone as much as about this one. I planned to update my software but now after I read many posts about it and about massive variety of bugs that this phone offers I aint gonna do it!
    So, I have question for admins: Am I lucky and my phone is gonna work great forever or I can expect the same destiny like the others?

    updates vary by region and product code i had a C6 and had some issues when i updated it was fine ,one thing you wont see much here is how good the phone is but you always see the bad which would be in the minority with most phones at the end of the day the choice is yours and should you need advice you know where to come for it.
    If  i have helped at all a click on the white star below would be nice thanks.

    Ever since I updated my phone to the iOS 8 and iOS 8.0.2 the phone gets blocked, sometimes I can't answer calls, sometimes it leaves applications while I'm still using them. it takes time to reacts to what I'm typing, the autocorrect is very anoying it imposes corrections u have to accept them then erase the word again and rewrite it the way you want.
    I Encouraged all my friend to update; and now wether they have the 4s or more recent devices  the yare all blaming me for what is happening to their phones

    I get better 3G signal after the last update and in some areas where I used to get 1 or 2 bars maximum, now I get 3 and it is not dropping like before.

  • Weblogic 12c Admin Console Extremely Slow Response in "Servers" only

    Hi,
    I have downloaded and installed weblogic 12c today on IBM p702 blade centre running AIX 7.1 & IBM Java 7. Everything is working fine; Admin Server, Node Manager, etc.
    I am facing a strange kind of problem and need your kind suggestions.
    When i login to Admin Console 12c and i click on the "servers" link under the domain -> environment; the server response is extremely slow. However, the rest is fine. There is no application deployed and no warning + exception/error is in logs (node manager, admin server out etc.)
    Please advice!
    Good Day.

    This happens when node managers are not running (or not reachable), as it tries to obtain the status of the servers that are deployed on different machines.
    What you can check is; are the node managers running on the machines you have configured (in the admin console, click environment, machines, your_machine, monitoring)

  • Forgot weblogic admin server password and not able to run to reset it.

    Hi Folks,
    I forgot my Weblogic 11g server admin account details and now I'm unable to reset the password as well. I tried following the steps mentioned in ORACLE-BASE - Reset the AdminServer Password in WebLogic 11g and 12c but I couldn't execute the below mentioned java command as the required class file is not identifible. could you please assist.
    java weblogic.security.utils.AdminAccount newAdmin newPassword .
    Thanks
    Vachow@

    Hi,
    To reset the password,please do the following:
    1.- Make sure Weblogic Server instance is stopped.
    2.- Make a backup of the LDAP folder of the admin server as well as managed servers (you may rename those folders).
    3. Set your environment variables by running setDomainEnv.sh (UNIX) or setDomainEnv.cmd (Windows). For UNIX only environments do as follows:
    . ./setDomainEnv.sh (Notice the space between the dots)
    4. cd to security directory in your instance.
    (eg: $WL_HOME/user_projects/domains/base_domain/security)
    5. Run:
    java weblogic.security.utils.AdminAccount admin_user admin_pass .
    Remember to change “admin_user” and “admin_pass” to your need.
    Also, don’t forget the period “.” at the end of the above command, it is required.
    6. After running the command, the file “DefaultAuthenticatorInit.ldift” will get updated.
    7. Delete the following file from “ldap” folder:
    cd WL_HOME/user_projects/domains/base_domain/servers/AdminServer/data/ldap
    rm DefaultAuthenticatormyrealmInit.initialized
    8. Go to folder DOMAIN_HOME/servers/AdminServer/security
    9. Edit the boot.properties file and change the password to the value already used on step 5. Do this for all the servers in the domain.
    10. Start Weblogic Server (Weblogic Server will encrypt the password for you).

  • Weblogic admin console always loads in production mode

    We recently upgraded from Weblogic 12.1.1 to 12.1.3.  Up until then we've used the <internal-apps-deploy-on-demand-enabled>true</internal-apps-deploy-on-demand-enabled> option in config.xml without any issues.  However, after the upgrade any time we start the server in production mode Weblogic deploys the admin console even with the option set.  The documentation for this option hasn't changed so we're led to believe that it should still work the way it worked in 12.1.1.  We're wondering if this is a bug with the new version or if there is something else we need to set to get the behavior in 12.1.3 to work the same as 12.1.1.  We don't utilize the admin console frequently but would like it to be available without using WLST to enable it before logging in.
    Thank you,
    Kent Z.

    Could be that the element name or location in the config.xml has been changed.
    Try to set InternalAppsDeployOnDemandEnabled through the general config page in the wlc or use wlst to see if if works.
